I recently purchased a Pebble watch from craigslist. After I got a charger and got the watch turned on it would only display demo information. I tried all of the reset options I could find online, but it was to no avail. When I go into the settings and try to change anything it says that “these settings can be changed on a personal Pebble”. Did I buy a broken watch?

Yay! Just to confirm I got my one working, It went into recovery mode fine when i stopped being an idiot (I was pressing Up middle and DOWN instead of Up middle and BACK as the wording was a bit confusing…) Updated firmware, did a factory reset, works like a charm.

Hi guys.
I recently got a Store Demo Pebble watch which only displays demo information. I have tried all of the reset options I could find online, but it will not exit the demo mode. I noticed you were able to get it out of Demo mode. Could you please guide me through process? I’m like stuck and I’d really like to get it going. Thanks

I have a demo mode on my watch and can’t get it to go to the proper recovery mode. In demo mode it doesn’t allow to pair to a phone so can’t get anything done currently. When I do the up, select and back combo for 30 seconds, it just seems to power off until I press a button then it reboots.
